DIE CUTTING

Cutting of plastics with die-cutting devices: complex, precise and identical cuts.

DIE CUTTING

Die cutting is a tooling operation to carry out identical and precise cuttings on thermoplastic articles. The cutting shape can reach a high level of complexity.

Die cutting is carried out with a cutting die, a steel strip with an upper cutting edge. After having been shaped according to the cut to carry out, the cutting die is installed on the cutting device and then the complete cutting of the surface of the thermoplastic article is carried out automatically.

The articles that we can die cut can be produced by injection moulding, extrusion moulding, compression moulding, thermoforming, blow moulding, suction 2D/3D (2k) and rotational moulding.

Among the articles die cut by the customized machines of GS Finishing Machines there are the following, listed as an example: windshield plastic supports for the automotive industry, air conveyors for radiators.
